Tuesday around the NFL meant training camp began for the Cincinnati Bengals and several other teams, but Joe Burrow would steal all of the spotlights for himself.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow showed up to training camp with a new hairdo as he shaved his head down to an army-style buzz cut.
Upon arriving for training camp Tuesday morning, the Bengals’ X account, formerly Twitter, showed the world that Joe Burrow also bleached his hair.
It was hard not to see past the Eminem comparisons as the Bengals posted a hilarious tweet to help further those comparisons.

Burrow has had quite the offseason as he stirred quite the commotion just last month when the 27-year-old was seen walking in the Vogue World: Paris 2024 fashion show alongside friend and former LSU teammate Justin Jefferson.
Both men rocked black suits, but Burrow showed way more skin from behind.
During an interview with Vogue, Burrow explained that he has “always loved clothes but never really understood the industry.”
He further added that the experience of his first runway show alongside Jefferson is something he “will always remember” and cherish.
It clearly changed him, as he is now rocking his new hairdo before the upcoming 2024 season.
Joe Burrow Cleared for Full Contact Amid Rehab from Wrist Surgery
Before going viral at training camp over his hair, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor confirmed starting quarterback Joe Burrow had been cleared for full contact at practice.
Burrow was limited to 10 starts last year after suffering a torn ligament in his right wrist.
His being back means the team is again back in the Super Bowl conversation.
